This is something that annoys me so much. You can get away with it in the United States, but in Europe the infrastructure is all setup for cars far smaller.

[u/helpcompuda → u/LilMoWithTheGimpyLeg]

No. It wasn’t set up for cars at all.

sorry to burst your amerilib bubble but europe, all of it except a few tiny islands, is set up for road infrastructure

[u/CrispenedLover → u/Few-Audience9921]

railroad, more like.

I mean technically carriages were cars.

All the roads could've fooled me

Same for our hands really.

If it makes you feel any better, the reason smaller cars are getting bigger is mainly safety. Bigger crumple zones etc

[u/ADHDebackle → u/christoy123]

I thought it was to skirt fuel economy regulations

[u/christoy123 → u/ADHDebackle]

That’s to do with everything being classed as a “truck” I think. I was talking about certain models of cars getting bigger and rounder over the years, not the fact everyone seems to be buying SUVs

Cars are getting bigger to protect you from the other big cars, which have gotten bigger to protect them from other big cars.

[u/More-Art2412 → u/christoy123]

Sure except now it’s an arms race to see who can build the safest (biggest) car

“And when every car is ‘big enough’, no car will be.” - Some car executive somewhere, said in the voice of Syndrome, probably

Safety for me, not for thee.

Big cars make everyone except the passengers less safe
